  1. I was interested in booking a 2021 cruise and gave a list of preferred cabins to my TA. I have been offered a different cabin, on a different deck and in what I consider a poor location.I was also inform by my TA the cabins I preferred were available but the cruise line would not release them.Has anyone experienced a similar situation?

  2. Have done a similar excursion with a different cruise line.From Cherbourg I visited Utah beach. The drive by bus is approx 50 minutes to the Utah Beach Museum which is situated right at the beach.On arrival at the Museum , we were introduced to one of the museum guides who took us down onto the beach and explained the history and show the group photos relating to the D Day invasion on the beach.We then head to the monument at the top of the beach where the guide gave more history before heading back to the museum where we received a quick tour of the lower level of the museum(the museum is on two levels).We then had about 40 minutes free time to wander around the museum before meeting at the cinema where we viewed a film relating to the beach landings( film lasts about 20 minutes) before heading back to the bus

     

    From Le Harve, I visited Omaha Beach.Drive to pointe du hoc is approx 2 hours.We had 45 minutes free time here before heading to the cemetry at Colleville.for 45 minutes. Then onto Arromanche and then Pegasus bridge before heading back to the ship.

     

    If you are interested in WW2 history you will enjoy the tours.The only problem is that you can not see everything in such a short period but what you do see is very good.If you require any more info let me know.
